What is happening to average variable costs when they equal marginal costs?
When average variable costs equal to the average marginal cost, the average variable cost will be at the minimum point. i.e. lowest cost
What is the difference between average costs and marginal costs?
This is the economic distinction equivalent to fully absorbed cost of product and variable cost of product. Average cost is total cost divided by number of units. Marginal cost is the cost to produce the next unit (or the last unit
Why is total cost greater than average variable cost?
Total cost is greater than average variable cost because total cost includes both variable costs and fixed costs, while average variable cost only accounts for variable costs per unit of output. Fixed costs remain constant regardless of the level of production, which means they contribute to the overall total cost but do not affect the average variable cost calculation. As production increases, the average variable cost may decrease due to spreading the variable costs over more units, but the total cost continues to rise. Therefore, total cost will always exceed average variable cost due to the inclusion of fixed costs.
If average cost increases does marginal cost increase?
It depends if the increase in Average Cost is caused by an increase in Fixed Costs or an increase in Variable Costs. An increase in Fixed Costs will not increase MC, because FCs do not vary with output (by definition) And increase in Variable Costs will increase MC
In the short run the Sure-Screen T-Shirt Company is producing 500 units of output Its average variable costs are 2.00 and its average fixed costs are 50 The firm's total costs?
1,250
What is cost What is the difference between total cost and average cost?
Average total cost is the average of all your costs. This is your Fixed Costs and your Variable costs. Average Variable Cost is the average of your costs that can fluctuate.
Are Fixed costs are the difference between total costs and average variable costs?
No. But: ATC = AVC + AFC Or TC = VC + FC
What is the difference between base cost and variable cost?
You don't fire variable costs
What is the difference between start up costs and variable costs?
shut up u neek
What is happening to average variable costs when they equal marginal costs?
When average variable costs equal to the average marginal cost, the average variable cost will be at the minimum point. i.e. lowest cost
Difference between semi variable costs and semi fixed costs?
a semi fixed cost moves upward in a step where semi variable cost begining at a given base level
Difference between variable costs and differential costs?
Variable costs are expenses that change in direct proportion to production levels, such as raw materials and labor costs, which increase as more units are produced. Differential costs, on the other hand, refer to the difference in total costs between two alternative decisions or scenarios, helping in decision-making. While variable costs are a component of overall costs, differential costs focus specifically on the incremental changes associated with choosing one option over another.

Why ATC and AVC get closer as output increase?
Average Total Cost (ATC) and Average Variable Cost (AVC) get closer as output increases because fixed costs are spread over a larger quantity of output. As production rises, the impact of fixed costs on ATC diminishes, making ATC approach AVC, which only includes variable costs. Consequently, the difference between ATC and AVC decreases, reflecting the reduced per-unit burden of fixed costs at higher production levels.
Compare between the short run and long run costs using all categories of coststotal costtotal average costfixed costvariable costaverage fixed costaverage variable cost?
In the short run, all costs are considered variable except for fixed costs, which remain constant. Total cost in the short run can fluctuate due to changes in variable costs, affecting average total cost. In the long run, all costs become variable, allowing for more flexibility in adjusting production levels to optimize efficiency and minimize costs. Fixed costs become average fixed cost and average variable cost in the long run as they spread over more units of production.
Is total cost equals semi variable cost?
No. Total cost includes fixed costs, too. Even Semi Variable costs include Fixed costs...??? So whats the difference?
